Billie Jo Chrisman of Trenton has been charged with failing to provide for a functionally impaired person.

Warren County Prosecutor David Fornshell said this incident happened in February.

"She was responsible for the overnight shift and as a result of that, sometimes the quadriplegic victim wanted to go to different places and this happened to be one of those nights where she wanted to go over to a friend's house to watch movies and during the time that they were there, she got into an argument with the home health care nurse," Fornshell said.

Still angry at her patient on the drive home, Fornshell said that, "Chrisman decided that she was going to slam on the brakes intentionally in a parking lot ... and that resulted in our victim coming out of her chair, obviously not able to get back, assist herself to get back in her chair, being quadriplegic and she had suffered a broken bone."

Even though the victim told Chrisman she was in pain, Fornshell said Chrisman failed to get help.

"Chrisman proceeded to drive her around town for well over four hours while she lay in pain in the back floor of the van," Fornshell said.

The victim was eventually transported to the hospital, where doctors found she had broken the humerus bone in one of her arms.
